" Inside, the club is built like a baroque theatre, with a dance floor in the centre and rows of loggias up the walls. The Forbeses sit in the darkened loggias (they pay tens of thousands of dollars for the pleasure), while Oliona and hundreds of other girls dance below, throwing practised glances up at the loggias, hoping to be invited up. The loggias are in darkness. The girls have no idea who exactly is sitting there; they’re flirting with shadows. "
